For those unfamiliar, this three ring binder pencil pouch can be made in to a purse. Now is a great time to look for them in the school supply aisle. I am sure they can also be found on Amazon and in years past Walmart also carried them. They normally have a zipper at the bottom that allows it to expand in size. A gusset I think it would be called. Jo thought the Mead Five Star brand is the best quality, but when ordering online you do not get to choose the color.
Instruction can be found in this book. It was also in a Rug Hooking Magazine years ago, but I have no idea what issue.
Since I never took the time to make one on my own (I prefer to be shown rather than learn from a book), I took a class with Jo Wick that was sponsored by Crooked River Rug Hooking guild. What a great time we had! Jo did an excellent job guiding us along.
Here is a better view of the purses Jo has made.

These four were in various stages of completion.
The sheep was by far the most popular choice!
Here is mine. A purse strap has been ordered and I will be good to go 💕
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
